Chapter 892: 017 Smoke Disperses, Clouds Disappear_5

However, Marcus Parker was willing to do this for the sake of his mother and child.

He thought, if Ellie Wilton did not stop it, the Parker Family would probably have another major turmoil. Would Hannah Browman’s four children just let things go?

But the decision rested with Ellie Wilton. Ryan Parker did not plan to persuade her. Over the years, he was okay; he had a family like the Wade Family, with Celia Wade growing up by his side.

He could imagine the pain Ellie Wilton must have felt during those years when she believed he had died. That sort of pain was incomprehensible to anyone who had not experienced it.

Therefore, he refused to speak out of turn or make any decisions for Ellie Wilton. If she wanted revenge, he would stand by her side and help her.

Just like she said, it would be easy for him to leave the Parker Family’s four children with nothing in the future.

After Marcus Parker finished speaking, he went to make a call. Seeing this, Ellie Wilton rushed forward, grabbed the phone from his hand, "Forget it, forget it, I accept my fate."

Indeed, at this point, how could she not accept her fate?

She could understand Hannah Browman’s hatred towards her. After all, Hannah Browman had a happy family and a man who devoted himself to that family. Even if his love for her was not enough, his affairs outside were just pretense. As Mrs. Parker, Hannah Browman’s tenure was solid and satisfying.

Ever since she and Marcus Parker met and fell in love, his heart was no longer wholly devoted to his family. To her, he was not merely playing a role; it was serious. Marcus Parker had mentioned more than once that he wanted to divorce Hannah Browman and marry her, but it was she who refused.

She could be the other woman for love, but she was unwilling to disrupt the reputation of the man she loved, as well as the happiness of an innocent woman and several children, under the pretense of love.

She thought her sacrifices and compromises could create a balance for both sides, but in the end, she gained nothing, and others repeatedly saw her as a pushover.

Marcus Parker + Ryan Parker: "..."

Such a significant matter, and she let it go. Perhaps in this world, only Anna Turner would do such a thing.

"Besides Hannah Browman, there was also my close friend, Vanessa Taylor. It was a conspiracy between the two of them. How should I address this? What hurts me the most is not Hannah Browman having such intentions – I can understand her having those feelings. What hurts me is that my close friend, Ryan’s godmother, would also..."

"..." So it was Vanessa Taylor. Marcus Parker had previously suspected his own mother. He thought so – his mother probably would not do such a thing.

But Vanessa Taylor was Ellie Wilton’s best friend. How could this woman have conspired with Hannah Browman? Without a conspirator, Hannah Browman alone could not have staged such an affair.

At this moment, Ryan Parker went forward and took Ellie Wilton’s hand. "Mom, stop crying and don’t be so upset. Think about it – no matter who orchestrated that fire, the pain it caused us, at least I didn’t die, and you didn’t truly lose me. You could see it this way: they experienced sweetness before bitterness, but we suffered before we found joy, right? We are alright now, and we will continue to be happy in the future. Besides, the law does not punish those who have died. They are both dead, and even if we beat a dead horse, the only people who would suffer would be us, the living. They themselves would feel nothing."

Ryan Parker’s words, naturally, were to stop Ellie Wilton from holding onto her resentment. He did not believe that someone capable of such an act deserved forgiveness; after all, several lives were extinguished because of them. But seeking revenge now would be pointless and only harm Ellie Wilton herself.

"Ryan, don’t you hate your godmother? She...she knew early on yet refused to..." Ellie Wilton was aggrieved, thinking of how Ryan had mistakenly called Vanessa Taylor ’mom’ as a child learning to speak.

"I don’t want to hate now, after going through so much. I believe we should cherish the happiness that comes so difficultly. Mom, we’re fortunate, probably because fate itself thinks we deserve to be well treated," Ryan Parker comforted Ellie Wilton’s heart.

With everyone dead, there was nowhere to vent their anger.

Ellie Wilton nodded, "Mm, Ryan, Mom will listen to you. I was the one who couldn’t see clearly before."

After speaking to Ryan Parker, Ellie Wilton wiped the tears off her face and turned to Marcus Parker, "Marcus, let’s let bygones be bygones. Don’t do what you just mentioned. After all, I was the one who wronged her. No matter what, it was indeed I who stole your love, although she didn’t lose you as a husband, she truly lost your heart completely."
